4 wheeling

Gavin and Zoe are both here for Thanksgiving. As vegetarians, Judi and I don't really do Thanksgiving so they always spend Thanksgiving Day with their mother. On Friday, we'll get together and eat Indian food, a favorite of all of us and something that I like to cook (my favorite cookbook at the moment is "Lord Krishna's Kitchen".)

Today Gavin and I went 4 wheeling in the Rodeo. We drove south from Escondida on the Quebradas Highway, west on US380, and then back north to Escondida via Bosquecito. It's great country - wide open, scrubby desert with rolling hills and long, long views to the mountains around. We took the dogs with us and stopped a couple of times to let them run (and run they truly did). Lunch was pistachios, cheese, and some mineral water, eaten somewhere off the road when we were reasonably lost.

The only camera we took was the one in my cell phone. Here's the one picture we took, on the side road back to Escondida. The photo has three archetypal New Mexico elements, cows, flying saucers, and bullet holes:
